Start the chowder
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towel (remove the shells from the tails if desired); season with ½ the spices and a pinch of salt. In a large pot, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the broccoli (halve if large) and leeks. Sauté, 3 to 4 min., until beginning to brown. Add 2 tbsp water (double for 4 portions) and sauté, partially covered, 2 to 3 min., until the water has evaporated and the broccoli is tender; season with S&P.
